hi, git 2.10.1; daemon run like: "/usr/lib/git-core/git-daemon options" and when tcp client connects it tries to re-exec itself but instead of using /usr/lib/git-core/git-daemon path is calls "git-daemon" and depends on $PATH

hi guys - i have three machines, A pushes to B and on B there's a post-receive hook with git push origin master to push to C. At the moment my commits only go as far as B, yet when I manually execute the post-receive on B they go to C. What might be wrong with my hook?

But instead of having someone go into the folder and do `git pull` or whatever, and then have a client side hook invalidate the cache, I'll make a server-side hook that watches a 'deploy' branch or something and tells the client to pull

Hi there. Just set up a new Git server that should be used via "ssh" protocol. Home dir for "git" user on that machine is "/var/lib/git". How can I avoid that I have to specify this path in my git URLs, like "ssh://gitgit-server/var/lib/git/the-repo"? I would like to use simply "ssh://gitgit-server/the-repo"

when commiting, you can pass --no-gpg-sign to explicitly disable gpg signing; however it doesn't look like there's a way to do that on rebase? Please tell me I'm just missing something because it would be nice to be able to pull --rebase withouth trying to sign something

so what should i think about this? http://pastebin.com/nQEpXhse the git process just returns some other than zero return value and just exits/crashes in the middle of pulling without prining any error messages

i have a windows server; i've configured ssh-keys under git bash to work with another remote, so when I run bash and then ssh, no problems. however, when i try to push to the windows server, and have a post-receive to push to my remote, it hangs

Guys i have stash server installation and in stash server i have account stash under which bare repositories are created and owned by stash account, what i want to do is create an auto deployment hook after the push was made to deploy some config files on some server. My question is when i push into stash repo, can stash account checkout internally working directory so i can tar it up and scp without having an actual account in stash web UI.

Hey folks - I've trawled the net looking for advice on how to create a temporary branch made up of the commits of several feature branches, leaving the original feature branches untouched... Does anyone have any clues as to the best way to approach this?

i always hear not to use "git describe" because the output could change for any release. they say to use "git name-rev". how can i get the equivalent output to git describe w/ "git name-rev" where it shows <version>-<commits-since-version>-<current-revision>, with commits-since-version being optional if it's not straight forwrd

so I wanted to update a codebase on a server using an existing external git repo. I have no idea if this codebase is already "connected" to the external one or not. How can I determine that? [hope the question is clear]

i'm attempting to push to github using a different account than i usually do, and for some reason it insists on using my old username instead of the one i specified for this project via git config user.name "me"

badloop: Git is not a deployment tool, but you can build one around it (in simple environments) or use it as an object store(for complex ones). Here are some options/ideas to get you started: http://gitolite.com/deploy.html

barteks2x: A detached HEAD(aka "no branch") occurs when your HEAD does not point at a branch. New commits will NOT be added to any branch, and can easily be !lost. This can happen if you a) check out a tag, remote tracking branch, or SHA; or b) if you are in a submodule; or you are in the middle of a c) am or d) rebase that is stuck/conflicted. See !reattach
